Some plastic surgery procedures are elective. You might want to have surgery because you don’t like something about your appearance, such as a weak chin or a large nose. Others are medically necessary, like breast reduction, which is also called mammoplasty reduction. Here are some medical indications that you might need breast reduction surgery.
Physical Need
If your breasts are too big for your frame, you can be hampered with back aches, neck pain, poor posture, soreness in the shoulder or skin irritation. You could also have trouble breathing, numbness in your breasts or upper chest, sores or abscesses beneath your breasts and grooves in your shoulders from your bra straps.
Aesthetic Need
Some breasts are just too large for a woman’s body. Breast reduction can make your breasts more proportional to the size and shape of your frame. If you think you look too \”top heavy,\” you may want to consider having breast reduction surgery.
Psychological Need
Frequently, women with overly large breasts are harassed by men. You might receive unwelcome sexual advances or obnoxious comments simply because large breasts are common in your family. You might be embarrassed due to the size of your breasts. Breast reduction surgery can make you feel better about your overall appearance.
Plastic surgery can help you. Your breasts can be reduced to alleviate discomfort and self-consciousness. They can be reshaped to give you a more proportional appearance, which will improve your self-esteem and make you feel better about the way you look.
